Shani Davis is 6-for-6.

Three 1,500-meter races on the World Cup speedskating circuit this season, three wins for the 2006 Olympic silver medalist at the distance.

Three 1,500-meter races, three track records -- each on a different track.

Saturday's came at the 1994 Olympic rink in Hamar, Norway, where the Chicago native clocked 1 minute, 44.27 seconds.  The old track record, 1:44.74, was set by Simon Kuipers of the Netherlands Jan. 25, 2008.
